Vox Night Train

Third place looks a lot like (and is about the same size as) a retro toaster. This 15-watt head was designed with assistance from US amp legend Tony Bruno and offers great versatility from such a simple circuit.

MusicRadar’s verdict:

“The Night Train may look a little like a toy, but when it comes to tone it outguns many other small heads – looks cool, sounds hot!”

Why you love it:

“The Vox Night Train is over £300 but only just.” (Thanks, erictheweary, it’s close enough for us)
